When I said I was using a LAN, I was trying to answer your
original question regarding connection configuration.
I have 3 email accounts and they all leave the email in
Outbox until I manually Send/Receive. Just for the sake
of it, I just created another amail account and I still
have the same problem with it. I know someone else at
another location that says they have the same problem and
that is just how MS Outook works. According to you, I
should not have to send manually. What else do I need to
check?
